Item Open Access Friendly Hall Preliminary Historic Assessment(University of Oregon, 2022-10) Campus Planning & Facilities Management, University of OregonThis assessment identifies the historic features of Friendly Hall’s exterior (including landscape elements) and interior spaces. Understanding the building’s historic significance is the first step to evaluating and preserving its valuable architectural and landscape features. This assessment is intended to be used as a resource when making recommendations for treatment of Friendly Hall during any alterations or additions. The assessed areas are shown on the Surveyed Areas and Ranking map (pg. 4). Each area with potential historic significance is assigned a ranking of primary, secondary, or tertiary. This ranking is based on the level of historic significance (high, medium, or low) and level of integrity, defined as the degree to which the key historic elements are evident today (excellent, good, fair, or poor). Refer to Appendix A -- for a full description of the ranking methodology.Item Open Access 2.0 Site Specific Preservation Plans and Guidelines(University of Oregon, 2008-07) Campus Planning & Real Estate, University of OregonFollowing the development of the overall Campus Landscape Preservation Guidelines, a select number of landscape areas were chosen for the creation of site-specific guidelines, acting as test cases for a deeper level of investigation and treatment. The four sites selected for this investigation where chosen based upon distinctive characteristics they contain or unique issues they face. Two areas – Johnson Lane Axis and Pioneer Axis (Women’s Memorial Quadrangle) – were studied in tandem based on their intersecting relationship. Also studied were the Dads’ Gates Axis, an area never fully realized as historically intended, and the Old Campus Quad, one of the oldest developed landscape areas on campus. To inform and direct the studies, the history and evolution of each area were explored. This research helped establish the design intent for each landscape area, to the greatest extent that could be determined. Following this, an analysis of each site was conducted to explore current conditions and determine the historically significant elements to be protected. Items such as circulation, views, and vegetation were examined, recorded, and considered.
